from a limited pool of people. BJ has been quick to
address this through a combination of hiring experienced team members, implementing structured
onboarding and leadership training and building
a career development program,” says Allcorn. “The
combination of our Pacesetter™ Career Development and onboarding programs have allowed BJ
to build competency and ramp-up our teams to
match fleet demand, while ensuring all team members know how we expect to operate.“

Delivering efficiency to our clients

The business of cementing and fracturing has
many complex moving parts. Added to that is the
economic pressure of tight margins, the need to
eliminate downtime and to operate safely.

“Leadership tools and key performance metrics
give us a way to improve the performance of our
crews and overall operations that ultimately benefits our client’s bottom line,” says Trevor Gorchynski, Director of Canada. “We believe that all of our
operations should deliver consistent performance
that is repeatable at every location.” To achieve this
BJ has implemented integrated, real-time measurement and predictability to improve pumping
efficiency, minimize unplanned interruptions and
deliver value to clients.

The experience of one large operator in the Perm-ian says it all. “The first crew we mobilized for themin 2017 was fully trained and the results were incred-ible,” says Mark Embrey, Manager of BJ’s Odessa Dis-trict. “The client was impressed with how efficientlyour crew worked. They saw us conduct briefings be-fore each shift. They joined us during our review atthe end of each shift and observed the way we tooklessons learned and used them the next day.”The client recognized the BJ hydraulic fractur-ing crew as the most efficient within their oper-ations. Soon after, the company deployed twomore BJ crews. “In quarterly partner reviews, all keyindicators used to measure success had improved,”Embrey says. “Today, we are continually settingnew efficiency records for this client throughoutthe basin.”
